Della Ferrell and Georgia Duffy stand at the back of a covered wagon in a camp for Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show near Earl's Court in England. Ferrell, a native of Colorado, joined the cast in 1887 as one of the show's "Western Girls." She wears a hat with tassles hanging from its rim. Similar tassles hang around the edges of her short coat. Duffy, a native of Wyoming who also joined the show in 1887, wears a ruffled shirt under her fitted coat. Her long skirt has beads and tassles near the hem. Each of the women holds a riding crop. A wood fence is in the right background with the words "Buffalo Bill's Wild West" faintly printed on it.
